Wow, Lenn...!!!

All the bikes are cool.

I am guessing you fabricated the direct lever brakes.

Great work!

Thanks Jan, those were called spoon brakes they work kinda.
I also like the red one with the bags, sad thing is i can`t ride any of them can`t get on with the bad hip but fun fixing them up.  :)

Just noticed, cool stuff Lenn...

First impression is that i love the brake on the 3rd, and even more the saddle on the 5th, :D
